SUMMARY:Chris Dave X Marcus King X Cory Henry X DJ Ginyard
DESCRIPTION:Chris Dave\n\nThere’s a good chance you’ve heard Chris Dave play drums\, even if you didn’t know it was him. Over the last 20 years\, the Houston-born percussionist\, bandleader\, and producer has played with some of the most revered names in jazz and R&B\, offering his unique drumming style to songs by D’Angelo\, Justin Bieber\,The Robert Glasper Experiment\, and Adele. \nThe Roots’s bandleader Ahmir Questlove Thompson once called Dave “the most dangerous drummer alive\,” a characterization that Dave playfully dismisses. “I don’t believe that at all\,” he deadpanned during a recent interview. Maybe that’s why he endures: He lets the work speak for itself. And his music is so resonant that it does just that. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarcus King\n\nMarcus King faces heartache\, addiction\, and mental health head-on in his music. Pain quakes below the vibrato of his voice\, and his delivery weighs heavy with booze-drenched regrets and mistakes in lonely hotels.The GRAMMY® nominated fourth generation musician from Greenville\, SC\, started playing guitar at 8-years-old following in the footsteps of his guitarist Father and Grandpa. Logging thousands of miles on the road as “The Marcus King Band\,” he established himself with unparalleled performance prowess. \nDuring 2020\, he linked up with Dan Auerbach and cut his solo debut El Dorado\, garnering a GRAMMY® Award nomination for “Best Americana Album. ”Between headlining venues\, he performed alongside Chris Stapleton\, Greta Van Fleet\, and Nathanial Rateliff in addition to gracing the bills of Stagecoach and more. He has launched various mental health initiatives\, including a guitar auction collaboration with MusiCares. \nNow\, his 2024 album Mood Swings feels like the moment of baptism when water washes away a life’s worth of sins and degradation and all that’s left is a revived\, yet still real-as-hell primal scream. It’s as if King strained raw soul straight from his gut up through that broken heart andon to the record under the watchful eye of Rick Rubin. \nEmphasizing his vocals front-and-center more than ever before\, the trusty guitar he’s so often associated with plays the sideman this time around (thoughthere’s no shortage of impressive shredding). For as dark as everything seemed\, you can’t help but feel a sense of hope in the power of Marcus’s voice. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCory Henry\n\nSimply put Cory Henry is a Grammy Award Winning Artist\, Composer\, Producer\, Multi-instrumentalist\, all around keyboard master\, and is the future of music! \nIn 2021\, Cory’s album Something to Say was nominated at the 2022 Grammy Awards for Best Progressive Album and as a co-writer and producer on Kanye West’s Donda and Eric Bellinger’s New Light. Other collaborations include: Imagine Dragons\, Rosalia\, Smino\, Lucky Daye\, and many more.Cory was previously a member of Snarky Puppy\, and during his time in the band he garnered three Grammy Awards! \nMost recently Cory’s latest masterpiece\, Operation Funk\, has garnered attention from fans all over the world as he delivered sold out shows in Israel\, Spain\, Amsterdam\, Australia\, and throughout the United States along with playing most of the major music festivals. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDJ Ginyard
